Chapter 22 I have a brother whose kidneys are not very good

Arrogant at first and respectful at the end!
This is really despicable.

But you should never hit a smiling person. Since Wang Lun has already admitted defeat in this round, there is no need to push him too much.

Too much is as bad as too little, so you need to proceed slowly.

The banquet was arranged by Zhu Gui. There was plenty of wine and meat, and it was safe.

But people didn't eat much and remained cautious.

After three rounds of drinking, Wang Lun raised his wine bowl and said loudly: "Today, brothers Lu Fang and Jiao Ting are going up the mountain. According to the rule of first come first served, they can sit in the fifth and sixth seats."

Cao Jie showed no emotion on his face, he just raised his wine bowl to congratulate.

Lu Fang and Jiao Ting were overjoyed. As long as they joined Liangshan, they would have no trouble digging out the support of the leader Wang.

And together with Song Wan and Zhu Gui, Brother Cao Jie will definitely have the final say in the future of Liangshan.

If I become successful, I will ask my brother to come up the mountain to take charge. Wouldn't it be a happy life?

Ruan Xiaoqi always liked to stir up trouble. He was also outspoken and said whatever he wanted to say. He stood up with his wine bowl and said with a smile:

"Captain Wang, what you said is not reasonable. If we are talking about the rule of first come first served, Brother Song Wan was the first to settle in Liangshan, so how can he not be the chief?"

"This……"

Wang Lun had something to say in his mind, but he held back and didn't say it, and he also managed his facial expressions well.

"I think we should arrange the seats according to ability..."

Ruan Xiaoqi saw Cao Jie shaking his head slightly from the corner of his eye, and knowing the principle of stopping when necessary, he stopped talking in time.

Cao Jie tried to smooth things over, saying, "Captain Wang built the stronghold from scratch. I, Cao Jie, admire your ability. My brothers, Lü Fang and Jiao Ting, are young and rash, while the other is shameless and doesn't know how to behave. If I make any mistakes in the future, I hope that Chief Wang will forgive me."

Fighting and killing are necessary, it is a way to flex your muscles and find your place in the food chain.

Once you have found your position, you need to pay attention to the ways of the world.

Although Wang Lun had many shortcomings, he was a scholar after all, and he was good at flattering others.

After a few rounds of this and that, the heroes' hair stood on end.

Finally, Wang Lun put away his hypocritical smile and said seriously: "Brother Cao, a few days ago, Mr. Chai sent a letter saying that a miracle doctor named Yan Wangdi appeared in Yuncheng, who has the ability to bring people back to life."

"My village uses my brother's medicine, so how could I not know his ability? So I wrote a letter back, saying that I would help Mr. Chai find my brother and invite him to Cangzhou as a guest."

"Master Chai wants me to go to his house?"

"Yes! I wonder when brother will be free?"

Cao Jie pondered for a moment.

Chai Jin, nicknamed Little Tornado, was a native of Cangzhou, a descendant of the Later Zhou royal family, and was known as Mr. Chai.

He had helped Lin Chong, Song Jiang, Wu Song and others, and was generous and righteous, and had a high reputation in the world.

Anyone who had committed a crime was willing to take refuge in his house.

Later, because Li Kui killed Yin Tianxi, the brother-in-law of the prefect Gao Lian in Gaotang Prefecture, Gao Lian threw Li Kui into death row. He was eventually rescued by the heroes of Liangshan and joined Liangshan.

When the heroes of Liangshan gathered together, he was ranked tenth, corresponding to the "Tiangui Star", in charge of money and food.

If the soldiers and horses are not moving, the grain and grass will go first.

It's appropriate to rank tenth.

I just don’t know whether his knowledge of economics is worthy of this ranking.

Gaotang Prefecture is in Hebei. Going up there is Cangzhou. Going north from Cangzhou is the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.

Zhao Kuangyin seized the kingdom from the orphans and widows of the Chai family, and swung his jade axe on the banks of the Dadu River, saying, "My kingdom ends here." This meant that he was destined to have no determination to expand his territory.

Anything that the founding emperor could not do will be even more impossible for later emperors to do.

The puppet emperor Shi Jingtang gave away the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and the final result was his death and the extinction of his clan. Those who cannot plan for the moment are not qualified to plan for eternity, and those who cannot plan for a region are not qualified to plan for the overall situation. The ancients have long said that an emperor's mind determines his territory and destiny.

Chai Jin's power was in Hebei, and his family was engaged in the trade of mutual trade.

They imported horses, furs, old ginseng, cattle and sheep from the Liao Dynasty, and exported tea, cloth, porcelain, etc.

The trade surplus between the Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty earned the Song Dynasty an unimaginable amount of money every year.

The prosperity of the Song Dynasty was closely related to the development of commerce.

Starting a business requires money! Millions or tens of millions are never too much.

Cao Jie certainly had the idea of ​​joining forces with Mr. Chai to do business, but now was obviously not the right time.

"Captain Wang, my brother and I just went to Qinghe County recently and haven't returned home yet. Wait for a while! I will reply to you once I have made a plan."

"Okay!" After all, Chai Jin was his backer, no wonder he gave in and immediately agreed to let Lu Fang and Jiao Ting go up the mountain.

"And one more thing……"

Wang Lun hesitated for a moment, his expression somewhat indescribable.

Cao Jie said angrily, "If you have something to say, just tell me. Don't be polite with me."

"Well... I have a brother... He... His kidneys are not very good... Do you think there is any magic medicine..."

Wang Lun deliberately lowered his voice, but it was still heard.

"Haha, this brother the village chief is talking about, could it be you?"

Even though he was about to become someone else's "little brother", Jiao Ting still couldn't control his foul mouth.

Wang Lun's face suddenly darkened, and he waved his hands and shook his head, saying, "How is that possible? Don't talk nonsense. It's not me... it's one of my brothers who can't give birth to a son and is looking for medicine everywhere. The doctor is here in person, so I'll help him find out."

"Does the leader have any plans to rob a decent woman?"

"No, no, I'm going to take my first wife over. I'm not bragging, my first wife was a lady from a wealthy family, but unfortunately I got into trouble and we haven't seen each other for over a year."

"Ok!"

Cao Jie thought for a moment, then raised his middle finger and asked, "Do you...does your brother have this problem?"

"Maybe... maybe!"

"I don't have much research in this area, but... never mind, I'll prescribe you a medicine. Remember, you have to wait until sister-in-law comes before you can take it. This medicine can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. It also has certain side effects, so don't take too much."

He took the time to use his energy to transform a pill of "Viagra" and gave it to Wang Lun, who said "I have a brother".

After getting the medicine, Wang Lun put it away solemnly.

The banquet ended and everyone went to rest.

It's late at night. Some people sleep deeply, some sleep lightly, and some can't sleep at all.

As a personal bodyguard, Wu Song naturally would not sleep soundly. He just sat cross-legged with his eyes closed in meditation.

Faintly, he heard a series of heavy footsteps coming from outside the house.

He quickly got up and hid behind the window, looking out, and saw Wang Lun hurriedly running to the well in the yard, drawing a bucket of water and pouring it on himself.

"What are you doing in such a hurry?"

Wu Song secretly observed him for a long time but couldn't find out what was wrong with him.

After tossing and turning for most of the night, Wang Lun finally felt his surging blood calm down.

This medicine would not be very effective if given to a practitioner who practices refining essence.

But who made Wang Lun a scholar who was pregnant with a god because he didn't refine his essence?

Moreover, there were no women or children on the mountain, not even any big-tailed sheep, so the effects of the medicine could not be neutralized at all.

The next day, Cao Jie woke up when the cock crowed three times. He had a dreamless night and felt refreshed and full of energy.

In the yard, he practiced Taizu Changquan, practiced Yuhuan Step, and reviewed Professor Ruan Xiaoqi's internal organ training skills.

call! Whoops!

After taking in enough air, Cao Jie exhaled again, and a huge sound came out of his mouth, hollow like a bull's roar, but the sound was much louder than that of a bull, echoing in all directions and resounding through the sky.

Wang Lun heard the noise and walked out of the house with a pair of bloodshot eyes.

"Good morning, Lao Wang."

"morning!"

"Oh, Chief Wang, did you not sleep well last night?" Cao Jie had heard Wu Song's report before, so he asked with a smile even though he knew the answer.

Wang Lun smiled awkwardly: "It's okay, it's okay. I tried the medicine for my brother last night, and it really is a miracle drug. I have an unwelcome request. I wonder if my brother still has that medicine?"

Cao Jie showed an embarrassment: "Captain Wang, it is not easy to refine that medicine. I may not be able to refine a furnace in a year. The materials required are too rare."

Three simple words: "You have to pay extra"!
Cao Jie still gave the medicine, but he didn't talk about buying or selling, just saying it was a gift.

But free things are often the most expensive.

When Cao Jie went down the mountain, Wang Lun gave him a heavy red envelope and asked two of his minions to carry it onto the boat. Cao Jie kept refusing, but could not get over it, so he had to accept it reluctantly.

I have to say that Wang Lun is really rich. He gave me eight hundred taels of silver just by saying so.

The boat picked up Xiao Jinlian and Wu Da at Lijiadaokou, then headed south, entered Shijie Lake, passed through the reed marsh, and arrived at Shijie Village...
